I have been the scary owner of a 206CC since Sep.06. I think the sun saw me coming and decided not to come out anymore!!

I have had quite a lot of time 'topless' but would love to do it all the time!

Why did you buy yours then????


PS....How do I put a picture of my car on here please?

I bought my S about 4 months ago. I'm topless nearly all the time it's fantastic, night driving has never been as good! I also love driving in the rain topless, as long as I'm doing over 40 i stay very nearly completely dry (that must be a record for the longest sentence of words ending in the letter Y)

Very biased but that looks SO gorgeous! Pity they didn't put a suitably fat engine in the big fat car eh?! Yours the V6 or the JTS?

Bought the convertible because I like the way it looks, you can hear the engine better, and it makes you feel you're part of the environment as opposed to just driving through it. It's a lot rarer than the (already rare) coupe too, and it's nice to have something a bit exclusive.

Ah Jamieboybounce Il Monstro!! My wife very nearly talked me into one identical to yours (and I wasn't resisting much) but my timing was wrong and I missed out on it. I bought a Marcos instead. Nice backdrop of the Bass Rock and the Berwick Law by the way. Spent my holidays as a kid around thereclap
